My Work:
|
I have worked extensively with NASA and studied how birds, fish, amphibians, and
reptiles use gravity to orient their nervous systems. This included the effects
of gravity on organizing patterns of amphibians and the development of Medaka in
microgravity. I have worked on six new experimental laboratories that will be placed
on the US space station Alpha. I worked with NASA to negotiate space experiments
and collaborations between the US and France and Russia. Currently, I am working
on animation CD's for developmental biology which take students through the
inside of cells and organs. Animation enables us to set up exploratory interactions,
allowing students to take a nonlinear approach to course material, and the technology
encourages us to make it fun, exciting, and efficient.
